Man all I remember is that he said he would not leave KY. The buzz around here was the guy is the King why would he leave especially when he said he wasn't interested in going anywhere else. Sorry I can't find any quotes on this and I wish I could so I'm not talking out of my backside.
I do remember getting a few names tossed my way for saying he is leaving because of the money..LOL!
In the end that's why he left....50 Million dollars (insert doctor evil).
So many people that I work with were PISSED OFF and I just kinda smiled and reminded them it's all about the money. When it was rumored he would come to UL I about had a "code brown" in my britches. What an interstate rivalry!
I think people get blinded in thinking that a coach who has no history in an area has a loyalty as deep as a fan who could be 3-4 generations deep.
I hope someone can find the quotes...no problems on this end Mark.![]()
